Jobs to go at Cobhams

COBHAMs has announced that there will be up to 76 staff redundancies at its facilities at Bournemouth Airport and Teesside.

A statement last Friday said that it would cease some non-core activities by its Aviation Services business and would focus on key customers and contracts centred around the UK MoD and other Government and military operations.

The company says it will work closely with its people to redeploy them elsewhere within Cobham. It added it would provide employees with assistance with finding alternative employment.
